The mission of our advising team is to provide support as you identify and make meaning of options, obligations and opportunities that can help you reach your goals. We aim to work in partnership with you and help you to tend to the logistics of getting your degree, maximize your educational experience and set the stage for life after you graduate. Among other services, we can help with course selection and auditing your progress, assist in your integration into campus and academic culture and highlight ways to supplement your classroom experiences with learning outside of the classroom.
